Who do I know on here who has hearing aids? I’m two weeks in and it’s driving me mad. How do you get rid of the fog in your (no aided) other ear? How do you stop the ear tip from making your ear the itchiest thing in the world? Thanks.

Highland cattle are famous for their ability to "disco nap". Normally these brief, efficient sleeps will last between three and twenty minutes, deploying a variety of objects as pillows, including moorland boulders, cars or any particularly large dog or sheep who happens to be nearby.

Why are domestic printers the singularly most annoyingly painful things to use? They have one job. And they seem to ignore me all the time.

Today’s irk was triggered by the sheer number of idiots standing blocking the gate line at the Elizabeth line, while trying to find their credit card in their phone wallet. For the love of all that is holy, do this somewhere else rather than actually at the gate line … and get out of the bloody way

Some changes to the BBC One Bulletins tonight, which we hope have improved the overall look and feel and made it look less stark. Evolution rather than revolution but IMO much better.

Why can’t heat pumps be installed on London’s deep level tube? Surely it would provide a significant amount of hot water and electricity for the city, and might go some way to cooling down the appalling subsurface conditions.

Absolutely staggering how Sonos components’ value second hand seems to have totally tanked. The botched software update a couple of years ago seems to have totally ruined the brand.

Another shocking journey courtesy of GWR. Left Paddington on 1857 to Gt Malvern. Kicked off at Reading. No one around to ask what to do. Got a train to Oxford. Train to Hereford rolls in at 2045 but the driver demanded a break, so we sat for 45 minutes. I got home FOUR HOURS after I left work.

Wife keeps finding recipes to cook off the interweb but they’re always American and have absurd measurements I don’t understand.
